Volume 1: Dance of the Black Dragon Chapter 43: The Dance of the Black Dragon
Murphy soared in the sky, overlooking the black dragon army below. The black dragons were resting and recovering their strength, and the dragon wizards were opening the portal to teleport a large number of dragon soldiers over.
The priests of the Dragon Cult were also helping. They summoned a large number of shadow dragons. These magical creations looked like phantoms of dragons. Although they were not very lethal, they could cause collective fear and were good at melee combat.
Naturally, there were also various monster servants that were teleported over, including goblins, gnolls, bear monsters, boarmen, ogres, tauren, trolls … The dragon clan usually did not have any strict standards when recruiting subordinates, as long as they could fight and were not afraid of death, they would be fine.
Many times, we will use whatever materials are available, since we will just be cannon fodder anyway.
Murphy even saw a group of walruses, and he didn't know which black dragon lord living on the northern island brought them here.
The dragon race has always had a fine tradition of using legions of monsters to serve as cannon fodder. After all, the noble dragon race soars in the sky and will not easily lower themselves to fight on the ground.
These cannon fodder will be the main force in the ground battle.
The entire demonized forest has now turned into a huge monster camp.
Morpheus (Ancient Black Dragon): "See, mortals, that is my black dragon army, my monster army! Tonight I will lead this army to destroy Dalaran, destroy your magic sanctuary."
[Damn, you are just bragging, aren't all your men dead, Brother Long? ]
[Brother Long, you are so shameless. I don’t believe that the monsters below will listen to you.]
[Brother Long, please shout and see if they agree.]
[I admit that this scene is spectacular, but I guess there aren't many people among them who are Brother Long's men.]
Faced with the doubts in the barrage, Murphy did not explain anything. He had already found the other Black Dragon Lords at this time, so he landed directly. He did not land on the ground, but hovered in the air dozens of meters, looking down at the Black Dragon Lords who were in a meeting below with a condescending attitude.
Each of the black dragon lords is extremely large, with the shortest having a wingspan of fifty or sixty meters. Seeing more than a dozen super-giant black dragons gathered together is particularly shocking to look at.
Morpheus (Ancient Black Dragon): "Black Dragon Lords, I didn't expect you all to be here. So listen to my command. In the name of Morpheus, prepare to begin this glorious battle!"
The black dragon lords were quite unhappy with Morpheus's condescending attitude, but after all, they were still counting on Morpheus to take the lead, so it was not easy to directly sabotage him.
So they responded with a roar.
[Brother Long is mighty and domineering! Brother Long, are you going to accept me as your younger brother? If you do, please take me with you.]
[Fuck, Brother Long is so awesome, he's going to become the king of black dragons.]
[Wow, so many big bosses are saluting Brother Long together. With this kind of scene and this ranking, I wonder who else will come.]
[Brother Long is awesome, Brother Long, tell me the truth, is the boss of the game company your relative?]
[Hurry up and log in, there will be a big show tonight. 】
[Yes, yes, let's go to Dalaran and wait for Brother Long. Since we have NPCs as cannon fodder, let's go pick up some equipment .]
[There are more than a dozen big bosses. How many good things will be revealed? Just grab one and you'll be rich.]
[The equipment of the Dawn Sword and the Midnight Magic God are still on Brother Long. I will give them to him tonight.]
[All players of the Shanhai Brotherhood, stop watching the live broadcast, hurry up and enter the game, and go to Dalaran to wait! ]
Murphy didn't expect that his live broadcast would lead to such an unexpected result, but it doesn't matter. Too much debt is not a worry, and too many lice will not bite. Anyway, adventurers will definitely not miss such a big event.
"Shadow, are you there yet?" He sent a private message to the black shadow.
“Already in place.”
"Then I'll start."
Murphy let out a deafening roar, and loudly encouraged the morale of the black dragons in the air in dragon language.
Morpheus (Ancient Black Dragon): "The Black Dragon Legion has been silent for too long. People have forgotten the black wings that once covered the sky and the days when dragons dominated the world. It is time to let those humble mortals know who is the master of this world. Take to the sky, soldiers, warriors, and warriors of the Black Dragon Legion. In the name of Morpheus, let the dragon's disaster engulf this world!"
Following Morpheus' command, countless black dragons took off into the sky, their wings covering the sky and blocking out the starlight and moonlight, and they roared towards Dalaran.
Murphy flew at the front of the team. From his perspective, looking down, he could see tens of thousands of monster armies, driven by the dragon generals, rolling towards Dalaran.

Meanwhile, in Dalaran City - Violet Citadel:
At this moment, a secret yet solemn personnel visit is taking place here.
The King of Kul Tiras, Admiral Daelin Proudmoore, is taking his little daughter Jaina to visit the Violet Keep and enjoy the night view of Dalaran.
"Your Excellency Admiral, please come this way. Look, this is our apprentice classroom. In the future, Princess Jaina will be able to learn magic in the early stages here. After completing her apprentice training, she can become a formal wizard.
Of course, we will arrange for the best wizards to guide them."
As Antonidas spoke, he introduced Dalaran's teaching model and various academies to the visiting Admiral Daelin.
As the magic capital of the entire Eastern Continent, Dalaran has the most comprehensive magic teaching system. There are six magic academies alone, focusing on different magic factions.
As a princess of a country, the school that Jaina was introduced to must be the best, the Violet Academy, where Antonidas himself is the dean.
Jaina, who was only twelve years old, looked curiously at the magical castle decorated with magic lights.
Magic brooms were operating on their own on the tree-lined path, free-range elves in the garden were playing happily in the air, scattering starlight, the magic pets raised by the mages appeared from time to time, and arcane servants shuttled between the corridors.
She was overwhelmed by everything.
"How is it, Jaina, do you like it?" Daelin Proudmoore caressed Jaina's golden hair lovingly. He was really reluctant to let his own daughter leave her hometown and come to a foreign country to study magic, so he came here under the pretext of testing the teaching quality so that he could spend more time with her.
"I like it!" There were almost stars in Jaina's eyes. She was deeply fascinated by those magical creations. Thinking that she would study here for the next few years, she cheered and jumped for joy, not noticing the loneliness in her father's eyes at all.
In the castle's banquet hall, Admiral Daelin met several other great wizards.
"This is Prince Kael'thas, the dean of the Academy of Elements and a member of the Kirin Tor Council of Six."
"Hello, Prince Kael'thas."
"Hello, Admiral Daelin." Kael'thas saluted in a reserved and polite manner. Although there was nothing wrong with his action, Admiral Daelin still frowned. He always felt that there was an indescribable arrogance in the other party's posture. In fact, he was not wrong. As an elven prince, Kael'thas would more or less look down on the rudeness of humans, even if the other party was the ruler of a country.
However, when Kael'thas's gaze fell on Jaina, it immediately softened.
What a cute little girl! Kael'thas couldn't help but marvel at her. Her bright golden hair was so dazzling, and her flawless white skin and delicate little face all made Kael'thas' heart tremble slightly.
He turned his head away to hide the strangeness in his heart and was very surprised by his emotional changes.
"This is Master Kel'Thuzad, currently serving as the dean of the School of Mysticism."
Dai Lin shook hands with the bald middle-aged wizard in front of him. The other party's cold attitude made him frown slightly.
"Mage Kel'Thuzad has been working on the idea of adding a college faction, but most councillors do not support him."
"Oh? Why?"
"He hopes to add a necromancy academy to specialize in the study and teaching of necromancy. Although Dalaran advocates free academics, necromancy is a taboo after all."
Dai Lin nodded and agreed with this. He had led the fleet across the seven seas for many years and had encountered ghost ships infected by the power of the undead and undead on the islands. Those skeletons were not interesting things. The thought of his precious daughter dealing with those things gave him goose bumps.
I must remind Jaina later to have less contact with this Kel'Thuzad.
"This is Master Crassus, also a member of the Council of Six."
Although he is also an elf, this Crassus left a very good impression on Daelin. He seemed sincere and enthusiastic.
Dai Lin's intuition was very accurate. In fact, Krasus's true identity was actually a red dragon. The elf was just the humanoid form he chose. Naturally, he would not have the arrogance of ordinary elves.
He hid his identity and ran to Dalaran to learn magic, and was considered an outlier among the dragon clan.
Taking advantage of the break before the dinner began, Antonidas asked, "What does Admiral Daelin think?"
Daelin nodded. "So far, I am very satisfied. I am also very honored to have my daughter study here. The only thing I care about is safety. It may be a bit rude to ask this, but please forgive the concern of a father. Sir Antonidas, can you guarantee Jaina's safety in Dalaran?"
"Please rest assured, Admiral Daelin. Dalaran is a safe place in the world. No one dares to act wildly here. It has not been invaded for decades..."
Boom! The loud explosion and the shaking of the building interrupted Antonidas' words.
"What happened?"
A wizard rushed in from outside the door.
"Lord Antonidas, come out quickly, we are being attacked by dragons, lots and lots of black dragons!"
